• NCL Itinerary Change #1

    August 5, 2024 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 84 °F

    An NCLH company after all!

    So, no surprise that we got an itinerary change right after the final payment deadline yesterday … while we were on our way to Denver for some sightseeing.

    Yeah, yeah. I know this happens with all cruise lines. But it seems like it has become a habit with the NCLH lines in the last few years. We’ve experienced it on Oceania. And now on NCL.

    I had to laugh at the paragraph that said, in part, “… pleased to share that we have preserved the amount of time originally scheduled for our visit to Ponta Delgada, Portugal.” True, but we did lose an hour each in Vigo and Lisbon, and another hour in Southampton … the latter because the sailaway has been moved up from 5:00p to 4:00p.

    Technically, I don’t mind the changes. This cruise is transportation for us. Any sightseeing we do will be DIY, so no plans to re-jigger. Plus, we will be arriving earlier ... which is a good thing. After all, we are sailing in December and it will get dark early anyway.

    I titled this itinerary change #1. With only three ports of call, I would think that there would be no other changes. But we shall see! There is always the possibility that more's to come.
